There needs to be an accumulation of flopping points. This needs to stop, the fines and "techs" are obviously not working.

For such a blatant one like this it should honestly be a 5+ game suspension. That would end this shit in a week

Really?? LeBron's flops were so much worse and exaggerated! This is nothing compared to other players. In no way, shape or form does it deserve 5 games or more.

Sadly the NBPA has too much power, not to mention the NBA would never go for something like that. They're against anything that loses them money.

Yeah I honestly agree, this shit is so stupid. When someone bangs into you and you go down, or pushes off and there's actual contact, I hate the exaggeration, but kinda get it. Any time big bodies are moving fast and there's contact, it's hard for me to say from my couch oh flop or oh bull shit he shouldn't have fallen down. But this shit, just making up contact, completely acting like you got hit, and it's so obvious, fuck that just get rid of it, make an example of players that do this.

Are they even fining players anymore? According to one site, they've only given out 9 fines all year, the last one being 9 days ago. There should be fined player almost every day if they were actually reviewing tape.
